That’s what Jared Kushner (41), son-in-law and former senior adviser to former US President Donald Trump, writes in the book “Breaking History”, which will be published next month.
It is The Guardian who should already have seen the book by now.
Kushner claims in the book that Trump should have considered sending out a Twitter message in which he would attack media mogul Rupert Murdoch.
– That guy is not good, and I’m going to tweet it, the president is said to have said.

Trump has for a long time been known to fire up the social network.
– I’ll fix it
Kushner further claims that he told Trump not to send out the Twitter message when Trump was in the middle of the Republican primary.
Murdoch is perhaps the world’s most powerful man among conservative media, and the adviser further writes that he feared negative publicity about Murdoch could have consequences.
– You don’t have to end up at odds with Rupert, give me a couple of hours and I’ll fix it, Kushner is said to have replied.
After this, the son-in-law claims to have fixed Murdoch’s support. If the allegations are true, according to The Guardian, this intervention may have been a major intervention in modern American history.
The media mogul’s support for Trump, mainly through the news channel Fox News, helped the billionaire win the presidential election over Hillary Clinton in 2016.
The explosive biography comes in the middle of a period where there is great excitement about whether Trump will run again as the Republican presidential candidate.
In recent weeks, he has made more and more public appearances where he has hinted that he will try to avenge the election defeat for Joe Biden (79) in 2020.
However, Trump has not formally launched his candidacy in a presidential election campaign that is expected to get into full swing over the summer.
The former president is already in trouble as a result of the hearings about the storming of Congress on 6 January last year. The hearing has revealed that the president did nothing to stop the mob that stormed Congress in protest of Biden’s legitimate election victory.
